We will be announcing 21 city pledges to the European Pillar of Social Rights and we will launch a new EUROCITIES report with recent evidence on 'Cities delivering social rights'.

15 deputy mayors will debate with MEPs and EU officials on how to further support the implementation of the European Pillar of Social Rights at local level. We will discuss opportunities for better synergy between local, national and EU-level policy-makers and with civil society on how to ensure equal opportunities and social rights for all people. The outcomes of the debates will feed into upcoming EUROCITIES recommendations for the future of social Europe.
